Anything I say is my opinion, and has nothing to do with/does not reflect the views of anyone I was/am/will be involved with/employed by/volunteer for/associated with. There, I think that should cover it!

What's in the all chrome extinguishers? Is it the cold fire type ones that were used at Motorplex about 5 years ago ?still used. I haven't been there in 3+ years so I don't know what's used now.

Yep its Cold Fire.....Best fire fighting foam on the market as there is no caustic acid in it.
It has a cooling agent in it so it can be sprayed on any one with burns and open wounds dont need hours of surgical/hospital cleaning of wounds like you do with normal foam

I've also heard that cold fire can be used on pretty much any class of fire. I'm guessing not electrical though.
